Silly Bercow in tweet gaffe No2

BLUNDERING Sally Bercow has made a second Twitter gaffe — by breaching a court
order that bans the naming of a runaway schoolgirl.

Bercow, whose husband John is Commons Speaker, faces a £5,000 fine after
identifying the teen who allegedly skipped school with Jeremy Forrest, 30.

He was arrested in Bordeaux, France, and returned to Britain in September when
he was charged with child abduction. A court made a Section 39 Order under
the Children and Young Persons Act 1933, banning the girl’s identification.

But leading lawyer Mark Stephens said it was unlikely Bercow would land in
trouble as it was “incredibly difficult” for Twitter members to know when a
reporting restriction was in place.

Bercow was unavailable for comment — but last night was GAGGED
from Twitter by lawyers and her husband.

She tweeted to her 59,000 followers: “Looking at tweets but (sadly) can’t
reply (#lawyerswhippedmyass #asdidMrB). Hope 2 b back soon. xx” She has
already apologised for her Lord McAlpine tweet, but insisted it was foolish
rather than libellous.

He has accepted a £185,000 settlement from the Beeb over a Newsnight report
that wrongly implicated him in a paedophile ring.

He is also in talks with ITV and is suing them for £500,000 after This Morning
host Phillip Schofield handed PM David Cameron a list of Tory politicians
allegedly linked to child sex abuse.
